Fractional CMO — Turning Marketing Strategy into Measurable Growth (Remote)
Company: How To MANAGE a Small Law Firm (HTM)
Location: 100% Remote (Must reside in AZ, CO, FL, GA, IL, MD, MI, NC, NJ, NY, PA, TX, VA, or WA)
Department: Executive Leadership
Employment Type: Full-Time | W-2 Employee
Compensation: $110,000 Base Salary + Performance Compensation | $182,000+ On-Target Earnings
Please Read Before Applying
This role requires 12+ years of senior marketing leadership experience, including direct experience managing multiple client relationships simultaneously — as a CMO, Fractional CMO, Outsourced CMO, Marketing Advisor, or in another multi-client marketing leadership environment — specifically advising small to mid-sized businesses (roughly $5M–$30M+ in revenue) for a sustained period of your career.
✅ Done this before? Keep reading.
❌ Background is primarily in-house at a single large enterprise or agency-side without direct SMB ownership advisory? This is a strategic CMO role, not a brand/agency execution role — likely not the right fit.
❌ Career built mainly around big-budget corporate marketing, without sustained hands-on work coaching owners and building scalable systems for smaller organizations? Also, likely not the right fit — this role depends on that specific experience.
This is a U.S.-based position. Applicants must currently reside in one of the states listed above and be authorized to work in the U.S. without sponsorship. We're unable to consider candidates residing outside the U.S.
About the Role
At HTM, our CMOs help law firm owners build brands that attract clients, generate leads predictably, and grow with intention. You'll operate much like a CMO does for any single client — setting strategy, building systems, coaching teams, driving measurable ROI — but within a structured portfolio model, serving as the marketing partner to a portfolio of growing law firms.
This is a full-time W-2 executive position — not a 1099 consulting gig or independent fractional practice. HTM provides the clients, systems, and infrastructure so you can focus entirely on helping owners grow smarter.
No legal industry experience required — we'll teach you what you need to know about serving law firms (including relevant advertising/bar-compliance rules).
Why This Beats Running Your Own Practice
If you've built (or considered building) an independent fractional CMO practice, you know the tradeoff: the strategic work is rewarding, but finding clients and running your own back office eats into the work you actually want to do. At HTM, we remove that burden:
- No business development — we bring you a full portfolio; you never sell or chase your next engagement
- Predictable income + upside — guaranteed base plus performance compensation, not feast-or-famine
- Full benefits, real structure — medical/dental/vision (75% employer-paid), 401(k) match, unlimited PTO, and a built-in team
- Scale without the overhead — a portfolio of clients with systems and support staff already in place
- A fast-growing company behind you — Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing Company every year since 2013
